Random answers to random questions

[ckd]

In this post I asked for questions, and received some...and as I said, "I might answer". Here are some answers.

In some cases, I'm going to list the questioner but not the question; in the others, the question but not the questioner. (Oh, and I've sorted the list so there won't be any telltale correlations between comments posted and questions asked. :-) If you've forgotten what you asked, you can see what you said.

aedifica: Is it still there?
cthulhia: Indeed.
dpolicar: Good question, to which I don't have a good answer.
gnomi: It's a bit late to answer this one, isn't it?
lbmango: Mu.
mdyesowitch: Not at the moment.
moiread: Fairly, even when I don't know how to respond.
timprov: It's a bit late to answer this one, isn't it?
yendi: If it were a game of BSG: all four dials in the blue.
But is it much much worse than two? I guess....
Have you ever given any thought to what you want your funeral to be like? You mean besides "very far in the future"? Not really, since I don't expect to be actively involved in it.
Three? Yes, I forgot to include "Come Together".
What color are your shoes? Black.
What do you like best about autumn? Being able to keep the windows open, because the weather is just cool enough to start doing that instead of running the air conditioning all the time.
What is your favorite cheerful song? There are several candidates: "Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport", "Good Day Sunshine", the Great Big Sea cover of "Run Runaway", Three Dog Night's "Joy to the World", even "Daydream Believer" (cheesy as it is) makes the list...but when it comes right down to "this will make me smile EVERY TIME" it's got to be the Muppets version of "Mahna Mahna". (I want to hear a mashup of "Mahna Mahna" and "Numa Numa".)
What is your favorite food? Probably pizza, just because of its versatility.
What's your favorite cryptid? If fictional ones count, the Loch Moose Monster from Janet Kagan's Mirabile. If not, probably the classic: Bigfoot.
Why am I having flashbacks to the Usenet Oracle? Because everything old is new again, and a question that can engender an amusing answer is still fun to play with. You owe the Oracle a .signature file of 4 lines or less.
Why? It's an interrogative used to ask about underlying causes, but that's not important right now.

No: Everything that's right is wrong again, you're a weasel overcome with dinge, weasel overcome but not before the damage done, not healing doesn't stop the feeling that everything right is wrong again, every rhythm is false every frog is marching in...

Ha!


also, your music choice makes me smirk.

Yes, I suppose it is.

As a backup question, would you give me the link to the awesome airfare finder?

The original "classic" version: http://matrix.itasoftware.com/
The new spiffy one (doesn't have all the old features yet, but adds some new ones and a shinier interface): http://matrix2.itasoftware.com/

They both use the same back end, so results should be consistent between the two.

I sense some serious musical overlap...

...though a few of those songs are unfamiliar to me. The general flavor of the ones you've picked that I do know, however, makes me smile.

My silliest feel-good song, or at least one of them, is "I Get Knocked Down/Tubthumping." *looks around timidly*

That's also a good one, though when it first came out it was really badly overplayed to the point of becoming annoying.
